and the equivalent of time to today, ronald reagan's recovery created twice as many jobs as this president's recovery. five million jobs doesn't even keep up with our population growth. and the only reason the unemployment rate seems a little lower today is because of all the people that have dropped out of the workforce. the president has tried, but his policies haven't worked. he's great as a -- as a -- as a speaker and describing his plans and his vision. that's wonderful, except we have a record to look at. and that record shows he just hasn't been able to cut the deficit, to put in place reforms for medicare and social security to preserve them, to get us the rising incomes we need. median income is down $4,300 a family and 23 million americans out of work. that's what this election is about. it's about who can get the middle class in this country a bright and prosperous future and assure our kids the kind of hope and optimism they deserve. crowley: governor, i want to move you along. don't -- don't go away, and we'll have plenty of time to respond. we are quite aware of the clock for b
